Feb 14, 2009 Opaque dark brown colour. Rich, sweet aroma full of juicy, dark fruits. Flavour is rich and has a nice mix of sweet fruitiness and spice. Alcohol and a hint of liqourice numb the tongue slightly on the finish.

Feb 12, 2009 Pours a cloudy brown with a big frothy tan head. Aroma is medium sweet, heavy yeast, raisin, cocoa and spice. Flavor is sweet, milk chocolate, light anise, spices and brown sugar. The yeast blends all of these flavors better than any other beer I can remember in some time. Full bodied with a very creamy texture. The alcohol is virtually invisible in this one. By far the best beer I have had in some time.

Feb 10, 2009 [Sampled with the trio: Svoger, Svogergylp and Adenila Foged at EBF, 2008.] Although it is long time I’ve tasted this I remember some fantastic notes such as vinous, dried fruit, sweet fullbodiness, spices, trappistnotes and also freshness.
